The Civet has a great relationship with humans mainly from production of Kopi Luwak which is civet coffee
which was discovered by the colonized Indonesians who were working in a
plantation. These workers were forbidden from consuming coffee taken
from the plants and so they picked up, cleaned then roasted the coffee
beans which were excreted by palm civet which entered the plantation to
eat the choicest ripe coffee cherries. The beans are hard and therefore
cannot be digested in the animal’s digestive system.
